One of the areas of concern we hear about quite frequently when patients are considering dental implants follows: What speaking will be like, will feel like, and more. We understand if you are thinking about this a lot. After all, you want to replace your teeth with fantastic results, which means improved eating, speaking, hygiene, and the list goes on. The brief answer to your overriding concern follows: Speaking will most certainly improve! As for the details you’re poring over, we invite you to consider a few things you’re going to notice with implants along the way.
#1: “This Feels Different”
As you might imagine, when you first start talking with your dental implants in place, one of the first things you might notice is that they feel different. They don’t feel exactly like your natural teeth. They don’t feel bad either. They just feel like something somewhat foreign. Unless something hurts or is really bothering you, this is absolutely normal.
#2: “Wow, I Got Used To These Quickly!”
Good news: That “different” feeling will quickly turn into a sense that your teeth replaced with dental implants actually feel surprisingly similar to your natural teeth. As you talk, you will stop experiencing strange sensations and a feeling that your smile isn’t your smile. You’ll just feel like it’s your own grin, you’re talking effortlessly, and that’s the end of it!
#3: “I Feel So Confident Again!”
You will probably also experience an emotional boost when you’re talking with dental implants in place. You won’t find yourself tripping over certain letters or sounds or words any longer. You’ll just speak clearly like you used to do.
